“José Aldo is better than me.”
Yes, Anderson did say that. And that’s not all he said. He went on to say that if Junior were in his division, he would be a major threat to his middleweight belt. The best featherweight fighter in the world is the featured figure in the next edition of Brazil’s Sensei Sportv television program.
The show has some potent surprises in store for José Aldo. The only clue given is that the tribute includes his greatest passion: Flamengo soccer team.
In the interview, Nova Uniao’s Junior talks about his conquest of the WEC belt, his first title-defense against Urijah Faber at the end of the month, training with Freddie Roach (Manny Pacquiao’s coach), the inevitable comparison to Anderson Silva and much more.
